Yes, 44 years ago. Also 30 years to the day we drew at Anfield. No wonder we’re fed up with the current state of affairs.

He’s quite a nice guy and definitely real. He did move to Spain a few years ago not sure if he’s back in Swindon now tho.
It must be nice to have his positivity that's for sure. I half wonder if he's on some sort of happy pills or something as its outside of the realms of reality a lot of the time. |

Anniversary of the 4-3 v Arsenal today.
Sigh
Just breaks my heart. That game and the first 1-1 draw at Highbury the very best. I remember both as if they were yesterday. In fact we were talking about it in the pub before the game Saturday. Now just loyalty and that light is going out. It’s shit and no signs of improving. |

I can only comment from a non footballing perspective around 12 years ago  |

If we get these crooks out and get an owner in we're comfortable is doing the right thing for us, that light will shine bright again no matter what league we're in. |

Days like these are what makes all the shit worthwhile. That replay at the CG I was in the Shrivvy- I swear my feet hardly touched the terrace steps all evening we were so crammed in. |

The fall & rise of Swindon Town between those two games. |

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

There’s no footage anywhere of that goal even tried the Arsenal forum but only the replay was covered. Great memories and remember the 90+ coaches all lined up by the railway line where the emirates is now |
